Morning all from a VERY VERY wet and windy Winelands.
We've had thunder and lightning [not you Forky] for the past 12 hours and rain like you've never seen but everyones happy.
Lightening up a little now, due to play golf later but more wet stuff is forecast....
Hope you've all got a lovely day in the UK....

Morning LW I hope it comforts you to know that here in Yorkshire UK it is very wet. I have a golf course close by and there will definately be no play today.

Can anyone join in here?! Sunny and warm near Edinburgh and has been for days! Daughter at Uni near Granada in Spain and they are floating away with rain, so I think Scotland wins!!!!!!!! Twenty odd golf courses within eight miles of my house and plenty of play today!

I think Bonny Scotland gets it over 'The Smoke' altho Vasey, Lobster and vino is a hell of a 'tempter'.
Also of course, at the moment Scotland is 'midge free', I believe they arrive on or about 25th July each year; after that, Golf...forget it!
We didn't play, instead we made our donation to the 'good cause' then buggered orf and went and introduced a couple of our friends to Sweet Revenge and gave her some carrotts for which she was most grateful.
I always say, you can't beat a nice nuzzle from a filly, they have such soft mouths.

Yee haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, the weekend is upon us. Anyone going to the antiques fair at the NEC?

No, Socs. I'm off to some TA/shares seminar in Islington tomorrow. Not so sure that was a good idea. Too late, its booked now.
On Sunday it's back to removing varnish etc from floor. Booooooring!

Floors you can sand anytime, the fair ends on Sunday. I could even give you a free ticket for two.

Thanks for the generous offer Socs but it's a bit far and not enough notice.
I know nothing about antiques so it would probably all be lost on me.

Good morning earthpeople. Lovely planet today but I can't hang around because there is a traffic warden hanging around near my flying saucer. I might just turn him into plastic toy and stuff him into a cornflake packet.

Socs....I'm beginning to worry about you dear...Maybe it's a
lack of trifle and you are suffering withdrawal symptoms, as
it seems like you are hallucinating, there haven't been plastic
toy traffic wardens in cornflakes for ages my friend. As for the
one pursuing your flying saucer, remedy is easy - put it into
reverse!
JJ50 - Hello new cafe person! I love Scotland, went to the
Highlands (Loch Torridon) on holiday and that was it, there's no place like it!
Save the midges who really are a pain.
OK I'll have some of the left over crab or lobster and salad please..

Thanks for the welcome stockbunny! Am afraid the weather forecast yesterday has been rather over-ruled today - bitterly cold and windy (that probably was our Summer) and any remaining midges will have been blown well off course - they tend to have too much sense to come to the East Coast anyway!
I rather fancy the sound of that left over crab or lobster too ....

All this talk of crabs has set me going on a little project. I've made a secret deal with a Russian sailor to supply the cafe with these little beggars, see link below:
